Anyone watched his 60 minute tape?
It’s just absolute DRIVEL. Just undiluted DRIVEL.
it’s really beyond belief that this man is president.

I know Biden doesn’t need any more ammo, but this seems to be another spectacular own goal by the Whitehouse. His advisors now have 7 hours to go to town on the footage and use whatever drivel Trump spouts forth against him in tonight’s head to head. It’s just absolute DRIVEL. Just undiluted DRIVEL.

Imagine boasting that this interview makes you look good! What must be rattling around in his head? Surely someone in his team thinks ‘fk this is bad we can’t release this’
I can almost guarantee it's not "this makes me look good" as much as "look how stty the MSM treats poor Donald".The fact it only re-enforces what any sane person already knows which is that he's an utter cockwomble is completely beyond his understanding.
What ever you think of Trump and Biden, there is an important difference, probably actually the most important difference when it comes to actually achieveing something positive in politics.
And that is the ability to work with others.
Whilst the President is the figure head, he's not actually the one that turns talk into policies into actions. That is the remit of the complex team of normally career politicians, advisors, lawyers, judges, heads of departments, and many many more officials that sit below the president.
Trump has singularily demonstrated not just the ability to work with others, but actually to be able to comepltely turn others against him, to make them actively PREVENT him achieving anything!
The White house and federal offices have (or perhaps had) a serviously impressive, seriously experienced, seriously inteligent and seriously driven number of officers, decent career diplomats, politicians and officials, who had a lot of experience of turning policy into action. Many of those roles have gone now, effectively destroyed by Trump, either though a moral mismatch, or via direct aggression and deflamation.
If Biden wins, his first task, and it's a huge task, is to rebuild the respect of the President in the US and worldwide, to unit his staff, and to put the system of governance back onto the rails.
I believe he can do this, he knows how the system works, he's proven he can work effectively with others, and he is able to LISTEN.
Is he the best possible President, probably not, but by god, he's at least 1,000 times more suitable than Trump, regardless of any actual policy or political leanings........

This is spot on. And that is the ability to work with others.

However the MAGA flip side of the spin is that this is exactly what he promised. 'Drain the swamp' of career politicians and officials.

Apologirs if a pea roast.
Remember Trump signing blank papers whilst in hospital ? Well, they're at it again. They tried a publicity stunt with Lesley Stahl
"Kayleigh McEnany presenting Lesley Stahl (@60Minutes) with some of the many things we’ve done for Healthcare. Lesley had no idea!"
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1318979...
Only problem being. Stahl opened the book
No matter where you sit on things, that was a stupid idea, in fact given they've already been caught doing similar things previously its a postively dumb idea. Either they don't care or just don't understand how bad it looks
Did she seriously think Stahl , a journalist, would NOT read the bloody book!Remember Trump signing blank papers whilst in hospital ? Well, they're at it again. They tried a publicity stunt with Lesley Stahl

What an interesting choice of source. In February 2010, the Washington Examiner published an op-ed in which Michael Barone, citing the Climatic Research Unit email controversy, argued that the scientific consensus on climate change was "propaganda" that was "based on ... shoddy and dishonest evidence."

Only watched the first 10mins, but how anyone can think she is fake news and attacking him. It’s just absolute DRIVEL. Just undiluted DRIVEL.
